Upgrade Action to use node 16 instead of node 12

[ericcornelissen]

Following the recent blog post "GitHub Actions: All Actions will begin running on Node16 instead of Node12" by GitHub, I noticed this action is still running on node12:

paths-filter/action.yml

Lines 50 to 52 in 8c7f485

	runs:
	using: 'node12'
	main: 'dist/index.js'

It should be fairly easy to change this by replacing using: node12 with using: node16 - I wouldn't expect anything in this Action's source code to break as a result of that.

One thing to note, by and large I've seen other Actions use a major version bump when releasing this change. The motivation being that older GitHub Actions runners may not support node16. See for example the "What's new" section of actions/checkout.

I noticed #151 includes this change. However, it's scope is quite broad which might be holding it back. Hence, I created this ticket to bring extra attention to this particular aspect of that PR.

Thanks for reporting the issue. The action was updated to use node16 in #161
